wooo...[in my best ob schneider voice]...john gettin fancy with the photoshop. you been doing some homework. and a great idea. i really like it. not speaking for the work required of course.

if you like the way the side roll under, what about letting the front roll under like it wants to and then only add the splitter underneath it hanging the 1" or 2" it should? just a thought. still liken that VKG logo idea.

if you have some old bumpers kicking about you could thin them out so they don't stand so proud of the front and 3/4 them and finish the inner edge with a end of the rear bumpers

sort of flushish looking bumpers that end just shy of the centre givin room for a licence plate

Yeah im more for no bumpers since i like the clean shaved look, at least on the rear of my bus. I had a seen a picture somewhere of a valence created with a huge duct in the center with recessed mesh, ill find it and post it, I think its what im going to do, Another thing i tried one day working on the front valence of my volvo was just holding it up to the bottom of the front
looked wicked. I thought of doing some drilling and fabbing up a bracket for a valence i could find in the junkyard that suited my tastes, and being ABS or somekind of fiberglass, it could take a little abuse withought getting so messed up on the roads...
